From Brown to Red Picture Change and other changes…Plus my 100th follower giveaway!

Hey everyone! I hope y’all are having a wonderful Sunday!  I’ve been busy spring cleaning and can say that I am just about done!  I am finally going to have my 100th follower giveaway!  This is in appreciation of having 100 followers.  I see that I’m over 100 followers now.  I am really touched by all of you following along.  I am feeling the love! 

So in celebrating this, I am giving away a $25 gift card from Pier One.   I just might add a little gift to go with the gift card. :) 

Drawing will be April the 6th because that is my birthday.  What better day than to have it right on my birthday? *wink*  I’d love for you to be a follower of my humble blog to enter.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  Just leave a comment on this post if you’d like to enter. 

I bought this picture from Hobby Lobby and the zebra print was in a brown as you can see in this picture. 

It wasn’t speaking to me.  Nothing wrong with it but I have so much brown in my living room.  So I opened up the frame and went to town with my little paint brush.   I used a deep red color and voila!! What do you think?

Here it is in a grouping.  The picture below my “dream” frame, is from Kirkland’s.  The topper above the mirror, is from Hobby Lobby and it also had a paint change.  The wall color is called “Comforting” by Behr.

This topper used to be a gold color so I used my handy dandy “Oil Rubbed Bronze” spray paint by Krylon.  After I spray painted it, I also used Rub and Buff to accentuate it even more. I took it down right quick to show you guys the details! See how special y’all are to me? *smile*  Oooh! Look at the detail on the cushion to my new sofas! :)  Pretty huh?

Can you see how Rub and Buff adds that little bit of color?  Love it!

And last but not least…..my wreath!

I added a wreath to the front of the mirror and look how the flowers coordinate with the picture, don’t you think?

I’m not finished with this wall but so far I really like it! :)

Melissa!  Oooh! I hope you are visiting blogs during your spring break.  Here is the plaque I bought after I saw yours!  See it?  (OOPS! I see the can of spray paint! I am  painting something in Pistachio and you can see my laptop on the wingback chair too!)

See it? :)

 

A little closer..  I love it! It adds that special touch!  “There’s no place like home.”   

Please visit these wonderful blogs that I am linking to!  Thanks ladies for hosting these fun parties!   I always have fun looking at other participants linking up to these fun parties.

Tabletop Tuesday….I’m Late! I’m Late! I’m Late!

Please excuse me arriving to the party a little late.  Ok, actually a lot late. :)  Hi everyone!  I’m back to blogging!  I made it just fine to Houston and spent a couple of days with our son there.  Son and I drove back home.  I tell ya, it is so much easier to fly!  It took us a good nine hours to get home!  He spent his spring break here with us.  I enjoyed having him over.  He has always been very attentive to us, his parents.:)  We went out to eat, went shopping, had coffee in the morning…aaaah so nice.  :)  I miss him so I’ve been trying to stay busy.  Thanks to the nice emails and comments about being concerned or wondering where I’ve been.  I feel loved!!! :) 

This evening I’d like to share my fireplace with Marty and "Tabletop Tuesday"   This is such a fun party.  I enjoy looking at everyone’s blogs. :)  Please visit her wonderful blog to get some great ideas on how to display your pretties.

These bunnies are ready to welcome spring, aren’t they?

 

Mr Bunny is ready to help Ms Bunny do some planting.  He seems to enjoy the little froggy too.

 

Ms Bunny has been working in her garden and has decided to make a tulip arrangement for her home. :) 

She’s ready to hang the little birdhouse to welcome spring as well.

I bought these bunnies after Easter at Hallmark about two years ago and got a great deal on them. 

I hope you enjoyed my little bunny post.  Have a wonderful Tuesday night everyone.

Ta Ta For Now.

Come Shopping With Me!

Hey everyone! I went to Hobby Lobby today and then remembered that some of you have never shopped there. Come along with me as I show you some of the products they sell. What i'm about to show you is just a fraction of what they carry. I can easily spend an hour or two there. I love shopping there. lol Currently, they have some items for 66% off. For those of you that like decorating with blue and white. Look at these pretties! I don’t decorate with blue and white but was so tempted to buy a vase.

What about decorating in black and white? I should have bought that plate.

These brown and gold pieces are beautiful!

How about just white?

I thought of Melissa when I saw this plate! Isn’t it pretty?

Love these candlesticks!

These keys are huge. I thought of buying one of these but I didn’t. Oh so many choices! I wanted everything!

Well I hope you enjoyed our shopping trip! I was laughing to myself every time I took a picture. You should have seen me being sneaky with my little camera. :) See how special you guys are to me? :)

Tomorrow I will be sharing what I finally did buy. You all have a wonderful day, sweet friends!
